Planas Government disavows Garzón: "I am the Minister of Food and if someone talks about food, it is normal for them to call me"
Tension in the Executive The PSOE charges against Alberto Garzón: "Reputation takes years to earn and is lost in a second"
The PSOE has allowed this Tuesday that the Board of Congress processes several requests for the appearance of the Minister of Consumption,
Alberto Garzón
, and the Minister of Agriculture,
Luis Planas
, on account of the controversial statements of the former on macro-farms and livestock.
The socialist approval has provoked the ire of United We Can, which had explicitly asked its partner in the government to stop all parliamentary initiatives on this matter, arguing that they are based on a "hoax."
The
purple
representative on the Table,
Javier Sánchez Serna
, has even said that Congress is doing "flat-earth politics" and has questioned whether the PSOE would do the same if it were a socialist minister.
United We can thus continue with its defense line of Garzón, which goes by arguing that it is a question of "principles."
The PSOE, on the other hand, turns a deaf ear to that argument and considers that the initiatives should be settled in the corresponding parliamentary committees.
The initiatives have come from the PP and Citizens, in the form of requests for appearance, questions and disapprovals.
The Popular Party has decided to maximize its order against the Minister of Consumption, Alberto Garzón, for his controversial statements about the Spanish meat sector, the quality of the products it exports and the welfare of the animals raised intensively, and has registered in Congress a motion of disapproval against him also summoning the PSOE to support it.
Ciudadanos, for their part, has taken the same initiative.
The PP intends with this movement that the socialists "get wet" and demonstrate with their vote that they effectively reject the words of the minister that, in the words of the spokesperson for the
popular
, Cuca Gamarra, "cause very serious damage to the sector and to the image itself outside of Spain ".
For Ciudadanos, another party that has lashed out harshly against the Minister of Consumption, the Government "badly defends the entire livestock sector" and has described the statements of the Minister of Agriculture, Luis Planas, as "crocodile tears".
The
oranges
dismiss Garzón as "populist, dogmatic and sectarian" and insist that he must resign and if the minister resists, the Prime Minister must dismiss him. "It is a joke that the defense of the sector is carried out by Sánchez asking for steak to the point," said Edmundo Bal, who insisted that
Spain
cannot afford a populist minister or a ministry devoid of powers. Ciudadanos agrees with the PP in that it cannot be admitted that a member of the Government harms the foreign image of Spain. Both parties remember that this is not the first controversy that Garzón has raised and they cite grievances against the tourism sector and the toymaker.
Likewise, both PP and Ciudadanos point out the "indeterminacy" with which Garzón uses the concept of "macrofarm": how many heads does it contain, what type of cattle is being talked about and to what extent it is raised.
The
oranges
also remember that the size of the farms are regulated by the central government so that if they must be limited, it is precisely the Executive that can do it and Garzón, as a member of the same, should raise it in the Council of Ministers instead of doing it. "dire and irresponsible" statements in a foreign media.
The PP, for its part, emphasizes that now those who seek to defend the statements of the Minister of Consumption "distort" his statements and try to "generate confusion" by mixing the concepts of intensive livestock and macro-farms. The
popular
say that they support both intensive and extensive livestock and "the balance between the two." The PP parliamentary spokesperson, Cuca Gamarra, affirms that in Spain macro-farms are not allowed and insists that "not all intensive livestock are macro-farms."
The
popular
have raised in the
Table of Congress
that this month be enabled for parliamentary purposes so that Congress can control the Government, specifically with the appearances of the Minister of Health, Carolina Darias;
the first and third vice presidents, Nadia Calviño and Teresa Ribera, and the ministers of Consumption and Agriculture, Alberto Garzón and Luis Planas.
